1. THANK YOU FOR CALLING AUDIO ON-HOLD. AUDIO ON-HOLD IS ONE OF THE NATION'S TOP PRODUCERS OF EXCEPTIONALLY HIGH QUALITY ON-HOLD TELEPHONE PROGRAMS. PROGRAMS THAT COMPEL CUSTOMERS TO STAY ON THE LINE LONGER. ON-HOLD PROGRAMS THAT CHAT, LIGHTHEARTEDLY OR SERIOUSLY, WITH YOUR CUSTOMERS, CLIENTS OR PATIENTS. PROGRAMS THAT SELL OR PROMOTE SERVICES AND PRODUCTS THAT THE CALLER DIDN'T EVEN KNOW YOU OFFERED. WE PRODUCE ON-HOLD PROGRAMS THAT ARE NOTICEABLY SUPERIOR TO ANY YOU'VE HEARD BEFORE.

2. DO YOUR PHONES RING A LOT? DO YOU SOMETIMES PUT YOUR INBOUND CALLERS ON-HOLD?....YOU MAY BE LOSING BUSINESS IF EVEN ONE CUSTOMER OR PATIENT HANGS UP OUT OF FRUSTRATION. AUDIO ON-HOLD WORKS!!! SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCING THE HANG-UP RATE. AND OUR CUSTOMERS REPORT CONSTANT COMPLIMENTS FROM THEIR CALLERS, THEY NOTICE A HIGHER LEVEL OF CUSTOMER AWARENESS AND SEE INCREASED SALES.

3. HOW ABOUT USING THE RADIO AS AN ON-HOLD DIVERSION? THE RADIO IS AN OPTION THAT SOME BUSINESSES USE. BUT ACCORDING TO ASCAP & BMI, YOU ARE BREAKING THE LAW AND WILL PROSECUTE IF YOU ARE NOT PAYING THEM ROYALTIES. THEY ACTUALLY SEND INVESTIGATORS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY TO FIND VIOLATIONS OF THE LAW THAT PROTECTS THEIR ROYALTIES. BESIDES THIS OBVIOUS DRAWBACK, YOUR CALLERS ON-HOLD MAY BE LISTENING TO AN OUT-OF-TUNE RADIO STATION OR YOUR COMPETITORS ADVERTISING. WHEN YOU USE AUDIO ON-HOLD, YOUR CUSTOMERS ARE LEARNING AND HEARING GOOD THINGS ABOUT YOUR COMPANY.

4. 4 MINUTES, 6 MINUTES, 8 MINUTES OR HALF AN HOUR......HOW DOES ANYONE DECIDE HOW LONG THE ON-HOLD MESSAGE SHOULD BE? THE DETERMINING FACTORS INCLUDE: HOW LONG YOUR TYPICAL ON-HOLD CUSTOMER STAYS ON-HOLD?, HOW OFTEN DO YOU HAVE INTERESTING NEW PRODUCTS, SERVICES OR EVENTS THAT MAY APPEAL TO YOUR CALLING CUSTOMER? OR HOW OFTEN DOES THE SAME PERSON CALL? IF THE MESSAGE IS TOO SHORT AND THE SAME PERSON HEARS THE SAME MESSAGE IN ITS ENTIRETY, INTEREST IN THE PROGRAM WANES. WE CAN HELP YOU DETERMINE THE LENGTH OF THE PROGRAM THAT WILL BE MOST BENEFICIAL, WHILE MAINTAINING CONTROL THE COST. ON-HOLD MESSAGING IS CUSTOMER SERVICE! ITS A GREAT WAY TO KEEP YOUR CALLERS INFORMED.

5. GOD! I HATE THOSE MESSAGES! ITS A COMMON COMPLAINT ABOUT ON-HOLD MESSAGES. YOU'VE HEARD IT. YOU'VE PROBABLY SAID IT YOURSELF. SO HAVE WE. OUR MESSAGING IS DIFFERENT.

6. WHEN AUDIO ON-HOLD PRODUCES YOUR ON-HOLD MESSAGE, YOU CAN BE ASSURED YOU WON'T BE FORGOTTEN.

10. WE ARE NOW OFFERING ACUPUNCTURE SERVICES. THIS IS AN ANCIENT SYSTEM OF NATURAL HEALING THAT COMES TO US FROM EUROPE AND THE ORIENT, AND IS NOW GAINING GREAT RESPECT IN THE WESTERN WORLD. THE CENTRAL BELIEF IS, THE BODY MUST BE IN BALANCE IN ORDER TO FUNCTION AT ITS PEAK; AND ALL PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL ENERGY- CALLED CHI (CHEE), FLOWS ALONG SPECIFIC BIOELECTRIC AND CHEMICAL PATHWAYS CALLED MERIDIANS. IT IS FELT THAT BLOCKAGES AND CONSTRICTIONS ALONG THESE PATHWAYS ARE THE CAUSE FOR PHYSICAL AND/OR EMOTIONAL ILLNESS. THE PRACTICE OF ACUPUNCTURE IS A, NON-TOXIC THERAPY FOR REDIRECTING AND RESTORING THE CHI ENERGY FLOW AND THUS HELPING TO REESTABLISH WELLNESS.

13. SOME INSURANCE COMPANIES CURRENTLY COVER ACUPUNCTURE COSTS, OTHER COMPANIES DO NOT YET RECOGNIZE THE VALUE OF ACUPUNCTURE. EACH HEALTH POLICY MUST BE REVIEWED TO DETERMINE ACUPUNCTURE BENEFITS.
